Directions
Chimichangas (Beef and Potato), If you have never tried a Chimichangas, do yourself a favor and try these When you stuff a large flour tortilla, then roll it up and fry it, you end up with a Chimichanga! They are so good! My hubby and I love to prepare Mexican food and really love to eat it We go to Mexican restaurants (rarely) and then try to duplicate it These are fabulous! You can serve shredded cheese, red onion, chopped A pitcher of ice cold Margaritas would seal the deal!!LOL!, If you have never tried a Chimichangas, do yourself a favor and try these When you stuff a large flour tortilla, then roll it up and fry it, you end up with a Chimichanga!
